Best suggestion is to take the cap and shove it into the fuel nozzle so that the pump stays on. LOL

mine has yet to fall off since getting my car last June.

If you stick your hand between the interior side molding and the rear seat bottom cushion, on either side of the cushion you will find a little hidey hole for staching stuff out of site, like a cell phone or something small.
The stearing wheel is c0cked slightly to the left.
The area between the front seat and the console is like the Bermuda triangle when it comes to your cell phone disapearing when you need it the most.
If you want a good laugh just flip one of those so called "sun vizors" down and see just how well they work.
Once someone finds out your car is a V6, they stop talking to you and leave you alone.
I also have found that while walking away from my car I have a tendency of tripping over myself because I am too preoccupied looking back at that beautiful machine that I am so blessed with as a daily driver.

Everyone knows when you turn off the car and take key out of ignition, the radio keeps playing until you open the door.

But did you know you can turn radio on at anytime without key in ignition and door open? Just hit radio power button

I remember one of the great discussions about how people were completely stupid because they couldn't use the gas cap hanger.

GM must have changed the plastic to something more flexible, as mine will not stay put on my 2010 Camaro, but it works perfect on my dads 45th Anniversary Camaro.

Perfect for a mag card for people that need them for parking garages, or to get into a gated community/apartment

The tachometer is too slow too keep up with the engine speed in 1st gear with an LS3.

There ARE sun visors

If the window is going up or down in auto mode pressing up or down, the direction it is moving, will stop it. Don't press up when it is going down, press down again and vice-verse. Took almost a year before I discovered that

Thanks for that info about the auto mode. I always am fighting the windows going back and forth and now know how to stop it in it's tracks.

even though i drive a manual, i learned this little trick driving my mom's Yukon XL (GMC branded suburban).

if you want to downshift in an automatic without mashing the gas pedal, just give the throttle pedal a quick little double tap and it will downshift. (assuming it works on camaros too)

just like people complain about the auto camaros, my mom's yukon is a little over-zealous when it comes to getting into the highest gear as soon as possible and this can be a little annoying when speeding up on an on ramp to the highway. with the double tap, it will downshift, putting you back into the powerband, so you can accelerate faster without flooring it and wasting gas.

gotta love driving a stick-shift and having complete control of the transmission and engine

If your doors are locked all you have to do to unlock them is pull on the inside door handle twice and the door will unlock.
